24 Months with TypeScript

It has been 24 months since I started working with TypeScript with our project at Harland Clarke. We were a very early adopter but even then 0.8 showed great signs of improving our team workflow and enabling us to build/maintain a large JS codebase. At the time, we figured that the quality of the JS output was clean enough that if TypeScript was abandoned we could continue development from the raw JS. Since then we have migrated the codebase across every release of TS and have a team of 5 actively maintaining and advancing the application(s). Overall it has been a great experience and has taught me a great deal about Javascript and team development.
